Alright, yet another one from the good doctor. . .

Is there a way to change your name in Skirmish Mode? I know it probably seems pointless, bizarre, stupid, etc. that I want to change it from the default "Renegade," but I do. So. . .yeah. That's that.

I dont think you can, man. You can try screwing around in the file that sets the amount of Credits that you get at start and everything, but im not to sure if that will do it. Ive got a question for you, now. Whats that file called again? The one i just mentioned?

That'd be "svrcfg_skirmish.ini" in the "Renegade/Data" directory. Which is basically a dumbed-down and smaller version of "svrcfg_cnc.ini" anyway.(IE, your server configuration file.) They're quite interchangable, but a lot of variables don't do squat in Skirmish Mode. "MapName##=," however, does.

Thanks anyways.

I think if you change the name you use in LAN (eg play a single player LAN game) then practice mode will also use that name (but why would you want to play the practice mode anyway?)

Random boredom sometimes. I made a movie in it to basically show a newbie the ropes, but it wont save and i had to delete the movie files because it took up WAY to much space.

To screw around. And also, to get practice in on a couple of AI maps. Make some new tactics, experiment with the limits of the AGT/Obelisk, etc. etc. etc. Also, the LAN game thing didn't work, but thanks for the idea.
